Is demineralised or distilled water useful for drinking purposes? If not, how can it be made useful?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Although very pure, demineralised or distilled water is not useful for drinking purposes and this is because it does not contain even useful minerals. To make it useful for drinking purposes, useful minerals in proper amounts should be added to demineralised or distilled water.
